Juneteenth: Rally for Reform
June 19, 2020 @ 5:45 pm - 8:00 pm
Protestors will gather at Chelmsford Center to hear the history of Juneteenth, the purpose of the march and be reminded of safety information before departing. A limited number of signs will be available for those unable to make their own (we encourage you to make one!).
The march will proceed from Chelmsford Center along the sidewalks down North Road. The route is approximately 1.8 miles long and is expected to take 40-50 minutes. It will end at McCarthy Middle School’s front lawn.
Rally at McCarthy: Upon arrival at McCarthy, speakers will be addressing the crowd. An area will be sectioned off for high-risk individuals to ensure appropriate and effective distancing for those in need. Please refrain from seating yourself in this section if you are not an individual at high-risk for COVID or an individual responsible for care. Those unable to march should arrive at the McCarthy Middle School for the rally by 6:30pm.
Timing: Protesters will be gathering at Chelmsford Center on the green at 5:45 PM on June 19th. The march will begin promptly at 6:10 PM and will be expected to arrive at McCarthy no later than 6:50 PM. The rally at McCarthy should end no later than 8:00PM
